Maybe I am a little dense, but I just realized...

by DATA-DOG in

the wtbts teaches that, " the soul that is sinning..will die.

" this was re-hashed in the what is truth talk at the dc.

so i got to thinking about the wtbts's doctrine.

Matthew 10:28

Amplified Bible (AMP)

28 And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; but rather be afraid of Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell (Gehenna).

I always thought of this Bible text and wonder if literally at death our soul continues to exist in a state of inanimation or asleep , and only God is who deside which of them will be destroyed. Another thing I think is why Jesus himself said:

Luke 23:46 New International Version (NIV)

46 Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” [a] When he had said this, he breathed his last.

Memorial - Commemoration or Observance?

by The Searcher in

the law covenant was a 'shadow' of the better covenant to come.

everyone at sinai agreed to, and was part of that covenant - no exceptions!

it was not just for the priesthood.

I think they came together often to remember everything about Jesus person, his teaching and example, the bread and wine were excellent aide memoirs when taken as Paul commanded, in a respectful, spiritual, way.

TOTALLY agree with you!! I can't understand how a person can be a Christian and not be anointed . IMHO, t he two are inseparable , if you are a Christian then you are anointed .

my evangelical christian co-worker is extremely "racist" towards Hispanics

by booker-t in

jw
friends

i am getting so tired of my co-worker who is a "evangelical christian" constantly making racist slurs towards hispanic people.

i just don't get it and it is making me very uncomfortable because i wonder what he says about "black" people behind my back.

everyday he makes comments such as "mexicans" are dumb and stupid, "mexicans all can't speak good english", "mexicans have 50 million babies" and "mexicans are all on welfare".

wolfman85

why identify your co-worker as a Christian? Are you attempting to paint all evangelicals with the same brush?

JeffT, That's not the issue here because it is the same person who has proclaimed himself as Christian .

Booker -T what you describe definitely could be described as a hostile work environment and you have every right to complain .

Bobcat, give me your take on this

by QC in

bcat, looks like jesus is not michael.

i just shared this with new member "lost".

if this is correct it's another big eye opener for the jw r&f.

About wars Jesus never said that wars would be a signal of the end. On the contrary, he warned us not to be deceived for these things.

Matthew 24:4-6

New International Version (NIV)

4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

The WT has done the opposite , took the War of 1914 as a sign of the end and deceived many and is still deceiving .

“Pregúntese ahora, ¿Cristo Jesús, quien puso el ejemplo y nos dijo que siguieran su ejemplo para ganar la vida, se unió a cualquier organización eclesiástica en su día? No, Dios no nos exige a hacer eso, sino que nos exige adorarle … Tenemos la Biblia para mostrarnos el camino correcto. Desde luego, no es necesario que una persona llegue a ser miembro de una iglesia para alcanzar la vida eterna. ” Atalaya 1 de marzo 1953 p.143

Don't e-mail DF'd family members - Congregation Reaction (WT 1/15/2013)

by 00DAD in

do not look for excuses to associate with a disfellowshipped family member, for example, through e-mail.

- w2013 1/15, p. 16, para.

in the congregation i attend, no one--and i mean no one--commented on the directive to not communicate with df'd family members by email.

wolfman85

I'm from Puerto Rico and culturally family ties are very strong and important. We like to do everything as a family. Maybe that's why the WT was more emphatic in Spanish.
